Pawan Kalyan’s ‘neutral’ stand over Nandyal by-poll has come as a major shocker including his own fans who have been expecting him to support Bhuma family with whom Pawan share close bond. This has yet again thrown light on Pawan and Janasena.
Besides this, what added more confusion is Pawan’s statement about ‘building’ his party. He reiterated that he needs ‘more’ time and his party would refrain from elections till it is ‘built’. Pawan once again stated that 2019 elections are target of Janasena.
Although Pawan didn’t has a cadre, he had clearly taken a stand in favour of TDP-BJP combo in 2014. Pawan need not have a cadre or organisational structure to take a stand. Also, his reason that Nandyal being just a ‘by-election’ is laugh evoking since Nandyal by-election has been touted as a semi-final for the 2019 finals.
While NTR had swept the elections within six months after starting his political party, Chiranjeevi too contested elections in 8 months after the launch of his political outfit (on Aug 26,2008). However, Pawan is ‘too slow’ in taking things forward since his first meeting of Janasena in March, 2014.
On one hand, Pawan has been taking ‘years’ of time to build his party, cadre, on other hand, his party has restricted the memberships district-wise. Perhaps, no other political party in the country have restricted the ‘memberships’. No doubt, one can not deny his commitment, dedication, yet what is Pawan is lagging is a clarity. Pawan needs a senior leader who can guide him and his party. Looks like, Pawan is caught in a dilemma and is adopting wait and watch policy and may want to take his next stand depending on the result of Nandyal by-poll.
